I dunno why, but i believe it appeared after i installed SP2! but i'm not
certain and i was wondering if i could get help before i consider
un-installing SP2.

When i have my mouse of the little icon on the bottom right hand corner with
an exclamaition mark infront it says the following:

Local Area Connection 2
Speed: 2.2 Mpbs
Status: Limited or no connectivity

I have broadband and i am currently with AOL, i hope this helped. >_< Please
help as my internet keeps logging me off...

Thanks for the support!

What you need to do is first call AOSmell and cancel your account. Then
reformat your computer to make sure you remove everything related to AOSmell
from your computer. Then call a real ISP and get a broadband that works.

Hi Taz. My computer is one month old and it came with SP2, so I am not sure
if that little LA connection with the exclamation point was pre or post SP2,
but I have had it from the beginning. It seems to be in addition to my
Broadband connection and it does not interfere in any way with my
connectivity. I ignore it.

My DSL connection is Lite and when I hover my mouse it says 10.0 Mbps. If
yours says 2.2 Mbps, your problem may be with your Broadband provider.

Hope this helps!
